How to generate unique random samples for the following scenario?

I have rectangular formation of 208 bolts( 8 along the height and 28 along the length). I want to generate a random sample set of 10000 points which would give me different combinations of bolt failures. There is no restriction on the number of bolts that can fail.

This will do it:
for k = 1 : 1000
% Get the number of failures for this row.
numFailures = randi(208);
% Get the failed indexes.
failedIndexes{k} = randperm(208, numFailures);
end
% Print to command window.
celldisp(failedIndexes);
Because it's a different number of failures each time, I used a cell array. You could use a regular array if you want - just make it big enough and set non-failures to nan or 0 or something.
